So the people above me that I've been complaining about, the ones who randomly hammer drill for 5-10 seconds at 3am and other bizarre hours, and seem to do 20-seconds-at-a-time of various hammering/drilling throughout the day in general, have apparently done something to their plumbing that the whole building shut off the water. For all 120 units. I know it's them because I can hear them banging on pipes or something in their bathroom. At goddamn 12 am. What iS WRONG with these people? The other day I was taking a nap and woke up with a jolt thinking my phone was buzzing and I had to go to work, but it wasn't, and then I realized that they had just been randomly drilling for a few seconds. I also thought I had insomnia because I always wake up at least once during the night, not due to having to go to the bathroom, but I'm thinking it's because they are just randomly drilling, which wakes me up. I just want to shower and go to bed, I don't want to go to bed without showering because I've been cleaning all day, including washing out the litterboxes, and I feel gross.

Have you tried going up and asking them what they're doing and can they knock it off between 10pm and 7am? Or call the police and tell them you think someone's setting up a drug lab.

There's a guy outside my flat cutting up the driveway. Apparently it's being torn out and redone. The contractor told me that he'd been told that all the residents knew about it and would have their cars moved out of the way etc. Obviously that hasn't happened because A: No one told me, and B: The car park is still full of cars. Apparently it's going to take at least a month and there doesn't seem to be any provision at all for how we're supposed to get in and out of our flats while it's happening.

There was a dog running around my back yard, but by the time I got up to go out there it had gone I want to get a fancy mouse with more than 3 buttons but this one has been going strong for most of a decade now and I can't bring myself to get rid of it while it's still working.

I have over 10 extra Logitech m510 mice just in case they discontinue them. They go on sale several times a year on Amazon so I always pick up a few extra.

I called Comcast to move my service and hoped to lower the price. The lady that helped me was the most professional person in that miserable company and made sure I got a nice price. I was all ready for an argument.

Twice this week i've gotten the dreadfully ominous "can I ask you a question?"/"can we talk later?" texts. Nothing sends me into an instant anxiety spiral as quick as those, especially when the replies back take forever. 90% of the time it's nothing serious but I start assuming the worst. every. single. time.

I hate websites that automatically redirect you to their mobile version when you open them on your phone. Especially if they then redirect you to the main mobile page when you were trying to get to a specific page, like for instance an order summary page by tapping a link in an email. Then it's a pain in the rear end to get where you were trying to go. Burn the webservers to the ground. Salt the earth.

My cellphone company does that. You can't actually log into your account proper via the mobile site, just do a one-time payment thing. It's incredibly stupid.

I had to work all weekend and it was really busy and stressful. I mean, I work every weekend, and it's always busy and stressful, but gently caress this weekend in particular. My useless chucklefuck coworker decided to quit last week, and gave us two weeks notice. Then he skipped town and didn't bother to say anything, because the schedule was something like a day late, so he figured he didn't have to work. Even though everyone got an email about the schedule being late. We ended up scheduling him for only two shifts this week, and he didn't even bother showing up for one of them. He came in today and was legitimately surprised that everyone was mad at him. Apparently he didn't realize that when you quit, if you give your employer two weeks notice they may just schedule you to work during those two weeks. At the same time, he was hurt and confused by the fact that we didn't give him any shifts this week. The gently caress, dude. You expect not to have to work during the last two weeks you're here, and then get upset that you have no hours? Seriously?

My friend is dating a 18 year old. The girl is young enough to be his daughter, and I called him out on it, but all he harps on is that she's 18 and an adult and tries to describe loving her before I walk away/cut him off. He then complains they don't really have anything to talk about in common, and he constantly has to ask her if she's ever seen the movie he's describing. Dude, you are dating an 18 year old girl, you aren't dating her for the loving conversation, clearly! Today is the last day of my vacation and I slept in and wanted to be out of the house already doing poo poo, but I got most of my stuff done already yesterday. The online store I want to order fish from won't ship on the carrier I want to use and will only ship USPS. After the last fiasco of USPS losing my loving order, sending the animals BACK to the sender, then marking the new order "Moved No Forwarding Address" when I had it set to Hold At PO, I am not loving using them again!

Friday I got an e-mail from a local courier. "Hey, they notified us we're going to have to deliver some stuff to you, we'll come around on Monday. You can check our website to reschedule if needed." I'm on a business trip until Thursday, and the website only allowed me to schedule until Wednesday. Fine, I clicked the "hold it in your office" option, so I could go pick the package up on Thursday, even though it would be a pain in the rear end (a half hour drive both ways). Today I get a text: "Hi! We have your stuff here in our office, you can come pick it up until Wednesday, then we'll send it back!" NO, loving SHITCUNTS  The reason I told you to hold it in your office in the first place is BECAUSE THERE WAS NO WAY I COULD GET TO YOU BEFORE THURSDAY  And of course the website doesn't allow me to reschedule, or anything. I'd have to call the local office but I'm ten thousand kms and six time zones away, I still tried a couple times and they won't pick up the drat phone God loving damnit, I hate dealing with stuff like this.

My glasses need replacing so I just had to spend £25 on an eye test then £59 on the frames. Didn't expect to be spending that amount this month so that's really annoying. The right arm has just come off because the hinge is hosed. At least I get new glasses tomorrow.

I said "one box" not realizing the box had like 100 contacts in it. At least they don't expire until 2020. I'm getting really fat. I'm not watching what I eat and am too lazy to exercise  I wanted to take a nap but those assholes are drilling again, except now it's consistent, been going on straight for 20 min or more. I seriously can't imagine what their walls look like. They must be 100% covered in picture frames and/or shelves. I'm really sleepy.

May or may not be cheaper depending on what you pay at the moment.

I haaate applying for jobs. The whole process of resumes and cover letters just kills my motivation. It always feels like I'm doing something wrong that I can't quite put my finger on. I just started a crappy seasonal labor position, following a crappy holiday retail position, because applying for the stuff I actually want a career in requires so much more. And those personality tests. Ugh.

I keep cycling between playing League of Legends and not. The community and its awfulness will get to me and I'll quit playing for weeks or months at a time. Then I'll think "hey that game sure is fun!" and start playing again. Then the cycle begins anew. I should really just quit playing entirely as it's a huge time sink but it's so fun when I get a decent match.

I'm pretty sure that's the legal equivalent of ordering prescription drugs online from a country where they're over-the-counter and shipping them to the US though.

I'm mad cause someone is trying to give away a 14 year old cat on facebook. I'm not mad at the person giving it away though, I'm mad at the original owner. Apparently she dropped the cat off with a friend or something back when we had some bigtime flooding down here, and just abandoned it. That's just loving cruel to do to an animal, but especially to an old one. I know none of these people, but god drat does that just irk the gently caress outta me. What kinda poo poo human being takes care of an animal for 14 god damned years and then just leaves it?
